The Konorchek Canyons of Kyrgyzstan have been likened to America’s Grand Canyon, just obviously not quite as big. The landscape and formations inside the canyons are very similar, but also carry distinct Kyrgyz characteristics.

Konorchek Canyons

The Konorchek Canyons reside in the Boom Gorge 125km outside of Bishkek. To reach the canyons, you have to walk through a maze of rocks scattered over a dry river bed. In the canyons you’ll see red sandstone columns that go on for miles; it seems never-ending! One particularly fascinating feature in the canyons is a 2.5-3 million year old dormant volcano.

If you’re planning to visit the Konorchek Canyons, be prepared for hot, dry summers and cold winters with very little snow.
